Okay TC, really good to hear from you again. I have been off some myself. Time does fly and we seem to not know why so many times. But glad you're back...

That’s the main reason I got this. A great deal. I’ve been thing on getting the Evinrude for a long time. Life’s too short. lol.

I took my E-TeC out for its final run yesterday. My dealer swap the prop to a 19”. Brought the rpms down to 5700 and I picked up speed. Two big guys, 280lbs each, extra tank of fuel, I got 41 mph. Very happy with this thing. This thing scats along.

I hope everyone is doing well. I don’t get on here often but think of all of you.

Your gunna love that motor ..Just dont run it out of gas ..
Takes a while to get it to reprime ..
